June is National Deafblind Awareness Month — a global celebration of creativity, expression, and human connection. Through #CreateAndConnect, Deafblind International (DbI) invites individuals, organizations, advocates, and people with lived experience to come together in one powerful message: inclusion matters everywhere.
This campaign shines a spotlight on the voices, experiences, and creative talents of people who are deafblind. It is an opportunity to see differently, feel more deeply, and imagine a world built on accessibility, understanding, and shared creativity.
We believe there is no single way to express connection. Art, movement, storytelling, food, texture, sound, and sensory experiences all have the power to bring people together. Every creation — big or small — contributes to a global movement that celebrates diversity and expands how we understand communication and community.
Throughout June, we encourage you to create, share, and inspire. Whether you are an artist, educator, family member, organization, or ally, your participation helps build a more inclusive world.
